These are the continuous non-conference schedule rankings for all 365 Division 1 teams, a supplement to the "All Things Non-Conference Schedule Releases" thread. Teams listed here have COMPLETE non-conference schedules, meaning we already know (if applicable) their in-season tournament opponent(s).

Rankings prioritize the percentage of games played vs. NET Top 122 opponents (top 33% of Division 1) combined with the average NET ranking of opponents. Non-Division 1 games are excluded from the average opponent NET ranking.
